No Kings Protest tomorrow

Post by Jersey Girl »

Holy cats guys. I just opened the website and saw the map for tomorrow's No Kings Protest locations tomorrow. Surprised by how many will be held in my own state. More protests back East but...take a look at the map. :shock:

Supposing there will be some overseas as well.

It looks like it's happening, even though the regime leader said, "If anybody protests they will be met with very big force." And then he said he hadn't heard about any protests. He has to pretend not to know about them because he knows he's not going to do anything about it. Even if he wanted to, his incompetent team of drunks and dog murders needs to figure out the logistics of deployment within a single city with lots of preparation time if they are going to handle pinpointed deployments on the fly anywhere.
We can't take farmers and take all their people and send them back because they don't have maybe what they're supposed to have. They get rid of some of the people who have been there for 25 years and they work great and then you throw them out and they're replaced by criminals.

We have two in our town. I just got back from one of them. It was very well attended. Hundreds of energized people with very creative signs making their voices heard. My sign was pretty last minute and simple, but it did the job. I will add images later.

I hope the Trump administration does not try out live ammo on the crowds.

Here is one of my photos from a No Kings protest in my town.

I and one of my friends at the protest. You can see my sign is nothing exciting. I made it hastily this morning.

Great sign, Kish!

Trump would be limited to misleading exaggerations with Sharpies.

I live in a small university town in one of the reddest states in the country. My wife and I walked over to the protest that was held in the park that's a few of blocks from our house. I hate the bombast and the crowds of these things, but really felt like I needed to be there to support the effort. With hundreds of people, it was surprisingly well attended. I wish I thought that it would make a difference.
